GREAT DADDIES

Abreast in appeasing angst of the annoyed
Breakers of barnacles of bullies
Clearers of cases in characters cantankerous
Duty dealers and or dotters
Dads!

II
Eleemosynaries in their elements
Family founders and fancy fans
Great grooms and goaders of guns in grooming
Home holders with high horizons and hope
Interesting interrogators of intruders
Judges and jurors of justices
Fathers!

III
Kings of Kingdoms
Lovers living atop losers
Mastery miracle makers
Never nighters in needy naming
Owners of our original okays
Protective purposes and productive possessers
Qualified quantifies and quality questioners
Reasoners and real reliable resources
Saviours, supporters, suppliers
Tables of togetherness
Unbelievable umbrellas
Valleys with various views and votes
Walkers, wakers, wonders, with ways in wrecked weathers
Xylophones
Yes yearners in yucky yards
Zoomers and zippers
Zaddies!

IV
You who famish to fend for your families
Working like wells to win the war of survival
Flagging funny characters for attitudinal revival
Fencing forces in protection of families
Are the alluring aura of gods in lives of generations

V
For you give to shape lives
You shape lives to make us
You make us to bless us
You bless us to see us live
Always watering our best to see us green into ripening

VI
Blessings are your initial gifts
Love is your added gift
Satisfaction is your thoughts’ gift
Then fulfillment becomes your bonus
When power do your honour shifts
As your seeds bloom
All these are signed and granted by the heavens
…and all great spirits
